Hi all,

I'm planning to walk the camino frances starting in Lourdes via Somport.
I want to buy a new guide book of the Frances that includes the camino from Somport to Puenta de la Reina. I read the descriptions of the books from the shop, but it seems they all start in SJdP.
Does anyone know which guidebook includes also this part of the route?
Thx,
Myra

The Rother guidebook also includes the Aragones (from Somport). I used the German version & found it very usefull. It has now also been translated into English.

as well as a written guide.
you could also add the ‘Gronze’ (on line ) section- to your phone which covers the Spanish section of the route from Somport to Puente la Reina

Buen camino

Thank you all for the reactions.
I hoped one of the guides Ivar sells would cover it.
But I'm going to look for the other options.
I use a map only for walking, but because we have 8 weeks for walking (aragones-frances-invierno) we have time to look around in the villages and nice places. And then I find a paper guide very handy.
Thx,
Myra
